Time really does fly. It’s already august and I finally have three weeks of vacation. Bliss. Not that I hate my job or anything. It’s just that I really like to sleep in the morning and I really, I mean really, don’t like public transportation. As yet another month has passed by without me barely noticing (I mean, the year is more than half gone and I have literally accomplished nothing other than sleep, eat, work, repeat), I have yet another monthly highlights & disappointments to share with you guys.

I have been having major problems with acne on my cheeks and jawline the last couple of months and I have been so frustrated because I don’t know why I’ve been having these skin issues. It’s extra frustrating because I never really suffered from acne when I was a teenager, so having skin issues when you’re an adult and supposed to be past that stage is very frustrating.

I think I have been able to pinpoint my acne to allergies and stress. I have noticed that hydrating and calming products help a lot so I have literally been dousing myself in facial moisturizers and aloe. When I want to give my skin that extra shot of hydration, I personally love to use a sheet mask. I really love me a good sheet mask so when I heard about the Sheet Happens subscription box, I was so excited!

It’s a monthly subscription box full of sheet masks that is available in Sweden and Europe. You’ll receive a box of 8-10 sheet masks every month from big Korean brands like Holika Holika and Dr. Jart + among others. They ship the boxes around the 25th of every month. I’m really obsessed with sheet masks as I love how my skin feels hydrated and plump after using them. I may have oily combination skin, but my skin feels best when it’s deeply hydrated, and that’s something I feel sheet masks are really good at. This is my first box from them so I can’t give you a overall review of the subscription box, but I’ll show you the masks I got in my July box and how I liked them.

The Cover FX Custom Cover Drops Foundation (44 dollars/495 kr for 0.5 oz./15 ml) is described as a innovative and revolutionary dropper bottle full of pure pigment that you can mix in with your favorite liquid beauty products to create your own tinted moisturizer or ideal foundation.

This product was a game changer when it launched a few years ago, and in many ways it still is. The idea behind these foundation drops is amazing and I knew I had to try it the second I heard about it. The idea that you can custom make your own tinted moisturizer using your favorite moisturizer is appealing to many of us. What appealed me the most was the fact that I could improve my different foundations by making them more full coverage. I’m a full coverage kind of girl and that thought appealed to me a lot.

I actually haven’t been using that many different products during this month of June. Most of the products that are a lot of the same products that I was loving in the month of May. There are however some new products (and even some old ones) that I’ve been loving a little extra lately.
